TDURSD. -Y. nECRIVrOgrt 24.1970. st meeting. of 70 held for council The ' iast,, meeting of the current term of council was held • Thursday evening, December 17 and lasted less than one hour. Ail members were present and a small amount of business was conducted. If important business should occurr "during the time between now and when the new council is scheduled to„ take office on January 11, a special meeting will be called. Smaller items of business discussed included 'a recommendation from the town Nsolicitor K., J. Hunter that the agreement between the town and the county with referrence to the Courthouse park not include provision for the county to have control of licencing the use of the park for carnivals. Mr. Hunter, in a letter to council, advised a request from the county asking that an amendment be made to the agreement that gives the county a say in what can be held in the park could affect the carnivals held each year by a 1 . al service club.. The matter was left 'th the next council. The Hon. C. S. Mac M ug ton has forwarded two c 4qu s to the town, one of $10,e,I I for a share of the arena work and one of $2,400 toward the work carried out at Judith Gooderham Park this year. The council had previously been informed by the Goderich Recreation by, Community Centre Board that the funds were available. Town Solicitor K. J. Hunter submitted his fee.ror retainer on work carried out this year and 1969 in the sum of $1,266.60. The ftew clerk, Harold Walls, also will be town welfare officer, lottery inspector and building inspector when' he takes up his post January 4. Council made the - necessary motions and passed bylaws giving Mr. Walls authority to act. in these positions. Krohmer sub -division approved; new policy sought The Krohmer subdivision was approved by Council at its last meeting of the current term on Thursday, December 17, at the urging of Cbuns. Paul Carroll and Ed. Giesbrecht. T • ,Move climaxed several wee of discussion of the project which had resulted in confusion in council over certain points. The Goderich Planning Board had recommended to council the subdivision be approved subject to three • recommendations including provision of a road allowance for widening Bennett Street: There had been some discussion as to responsibility for'the cost of the allowance and with the cost of services needed to extend existing facilities to reach the project. Council decided to pay for the road allowance; Mr. Krohmer would pay, for services inside the project and *the town and Mr. Krohmer would ,pay 50 per cent of the clefts of extending the services: Coun. Carroll, ,'who said he would' accept - -the recommendations of the planningard,. stated he had examined/the material referring to the' work, had spoken with , engineering consultant B. M. Ross about subdivisions in general and he was concerned about the cost factor on service extensions to the town, the developer and the PUC. "Every time we have. a subdivision up for approval we have a different ball game," he said, suggesting the town prepare a new plan for subdivision..: control. Coun. Giesbrecht agreed with Coun. Carroll - and moved ;that the town recommend t6 the next council" that 4/detate d subdivision --service, agreement be prepared and ,: ' no further subdivisions be -approved -until it is completed; with - an enforcing bylaw. It was pointed out that while discussions were being held on tie Krohmer plan it was necessary to check with the existing bylaw which appeared' adequate for what was happening in 1967 when it was drawn up, but coulct'no longer be applied Z when it was compared with bylaws `in force. -in-other municipalities. Council agreed with the motion and left the matter in the hands of the' 1971-72 council. Razing Darr •ay but' stares will be open Some confusion has resulted from the Goderich Signal -Star carrying a proclamation by the town stating Monday, December 28 is Boxing Day and an advertisement in the same issue stating stores will ry be open Monday, December 28. To carify things • we would like to inform our readers. it is acLlepted. policy for municipal governments in Canada to proclaim the first working day after Christmas as Boxing- Day, (Monday this year). Business premises, however, are not bound by the proclamation and many prefer to close Saturday in order to give their staff, a longer break over the -holiday. Some stores will be open on Saturday, some will be closed. Some will be open on Monday and some will be closed. It's just one of those awkward years. The Candy Stripers at Alexandra Marine and General Hospital have been keeping busy over the past few weeks getting things ready for the Christmas season. Last Thursday evening, some of rthem were caught preparing trays' of treats for patients. Mrs. Trey Ormandy, standing at rear, is in charge of the girls and helps them with their work.
